Caffeine · Free sugars
- Per serving: about 33 mg caffeine (serving: 1 glass (about 167 ml brewed tea)). Source: about 167 ml brewed per serving × USDA FDC SR Legacy #173227 (brewed black tea, 20 mg/100 g).
- Scaling: making more servings does not change the caffeine in each serving; what counts is how many servings you drink in a day. 1 serving: 33 mg · 2 servings: 66 mg · 3 servings: 99 mg · 4 servings: 132 mg.
- General guideline: EFSA Scientific Opinion on the safety of caffeine (2015): for healthy adults, up to 200 mg in a single dose and up to 400 mg per day do not raise safety concerns. 1 serving = 8 % of 400 mg. EFSA
